Formulated by Akebono, an original-equipment ceramic friction supplier, these EURO pads are developed to address the needs of European vehicles: strong everyday performance, cleaner wheels and rotor compatibility.
For even, balanced braking, it's best practice to replace the pads on both front wheels together as a matched set.
